Thank You, Host & Hostess Committee!
We want to express our heartfelt thanks to our Host and Hostess Committee for the many meals they prepare and serve with such love and faithfulness. From Family Night to the Harvest Banquet to the VIP Luncheon (and so many gatherings in between), your work helps create a welcoming place where fellowship grows and people feel cared for.

You don’t just cook food—you help our church minister to others through hospitality, service, and generosity. Thank you for the time, planning, setup, serving, and cleanup you quietly handle so often.

If you see someone from the Host and Hostess Committee, please take a moment to give them a big thank you—we are truly grateful for you!

All good things must come to an end! On Wednesday, January 7 at 5:00 PM, we will be taking down our Christmas decorations. If you are able, please come help us pack everything up and put it away. Thanks!

As we live our lives, we face so many difficulties, heartaches, and dangers. We often face circumstances that are far greater than our wisdom and strength. It would be easy to be swept away in such times.

But in our Lord, we find all we need for every situation. In Psalm 145, David praises the Lord for who He is and what He does. As David ended the psalm in verses 17-21, He speaks of our Lord’s nature. The characteristics David describes remind us of why we can trust our Lord – no matter what we may be facing.

First, we are reminded that God is good (verse 17). David points out that God is righteous. That means we can always trust God to do what is right. David coupled that with God’s kindness. Whatever God does in our lives, He always does so with perfect kindness – even if we do not understand it. Our God is good. He is righteous and kind. We can trust Him in every situation.

Next, Daniel reminds us that God is near (verse 18). Our God is not merely “up there”. He is here. He is with you. He is not merely watching you go through your situation. He is with you. You are not and will never be alone. Our God is with you.

David then reminded us that God is faithful (v. 19). God always hears His children’s prayers. God always moves to work in His children’s lives. We can face every situation in confidence because we have a God we can trust.

Last, God is personally involved in our situation. Verse 20 says, “The Lord keeps all who love Him, but all the wicked He will destroy.” God is not merely a spectator of our lives. He doesn’t just give us a grade when our life is over. He is with us and is personally involved. He is working in your life this very minute. No wonder we can trust Him even in the midst of a problem.

Are you in the midst of a problem or adversity? Follow David’s example and look upon the Lord. You can trust Him. He will not fail you.
